Summary: Enables DNA replication origin binding activity; enzyme binding activity; and histone binding activity. Acts upstream of or within DNA unwinding involved in DNA replication; cellular response to interleukin-4; and nucleosome assembly. Located in nucleus. Part of MCM complex and nuclear origin of replication recognition complex. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; future brain; inner cell mass; limb; and tooth. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease and autosomal dominant nonsyndromic deafness 70. Orthologous to human MCM2 (minichromosome maintenance complex component 2).

Segregation of parental histones to the leading strand increased markedly in cells with histone-binding mutations in MCM2, part of the replicative helicase, exacerbating histone posttranslational modifications sister chromatid asymmetry.
Title: MCM2 promotes symmetric inheritance of modified histones during DNA replication.
MCM2 is dynamically expressed in both proliferative and differentiated stromal cells during mouse periimplantation uterus. expression of Mcm2 is induced by progesterone action in the mouse uterine stroma. siRNA-mediated silencing of MCM2 arrests the cell cycle at G1-S transition during stromal cell proliferation. downregulation of Mcm2 could also compromise stromal cell differentiation.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
